Based on brain MPF maps from 146 adolescents, the protracted myelin development in cortical gray matter and subcortical white matter has been characterized as the function of age, gender, and puberty status.
We present a new MPF reconstruction algorithm eliminating the need in B1 correction at the ISMRM Virtual Conference. The full abstract and video presentation are available to the Meeting participants: https://www.ismrm.org/20/program_files/O64.htm
A new article validating a substantial simplification of the fast MPF mapping protocols: B0 mapping can be omitted in the majority of applications. It also shows that B1 mapping also can be skipped in lower magnetic fields (1.5 T and below).
